ment
Currently measured field strength for
•
Sensor element 1 in mT (C1). Sensor element 1 is in the direc‐
tion of the cable outlet of the sensor.
•
Sensor element 2 in mT (C2). Sensor element 2 is in the direc‐
tion of the sensor fixing screw.
Cycle counter
Number of cycles. One cycle corresponds to two strokes: Start
position - end position - start position.
The start position is the direction of the cable outlet of the sensor.
The end position is in the direction of the sensor fixing screw.
Cycle time
Duration of the last cycle in ms. One cycle corresponds to two
strokes: Start position - end position - start position.
The start position is the direction of the cable outlet of the sensor.
The end position is in the direction of the sensor fixing screw.
Cylinder stroke
Measured distance of the last stroke in mm.
Detection range
The detection range describes the maximum physical range in
which the sensor can determine a position. The detection range is
max. +30 mm and - 30 mm around the physical zero position.
Dwell time in end position
Dwell time in end position in ms.
The start position is in the direction of the sensor fixing screw.
Dwell time in start position
Dwell time in start position in ms.
The start position is the direction of the cable outlet of the sensor.
Dynamic Pilot
Dynamic Pilot
sets an additional condition for the switching process
during operation:
In addition to the condition that the magnet must be located
within the tolerance band defined in
Dynamic Teach
, the speed of
the magnet must also be v = 0 in order to switch on.
•
1. Qint switches on ...
... when a magnet moves into the tolerance band and v = 0 for
the first time within this tolerance band.
•
2. After switching on, Qint remains on ...
... as long as the magnet is within the tolerance band and the
hysteresis (depending on whether v = 0 or v ≠ 0).
•
3. Qint switches off ...
... as soon as the magnet leaves the hysteresis.
Dynamic Teach and Man‐
ual Teach
Dynamic Teach
and
Manual Teach
are two different teach options. The
teach-in button can be used to execute both
Dynamic Teach
and
Manual Teach
.
•
Dynamic Teach
:
Dynamic Teach
can be used to have the sensor automatically set
the end points of the desired measuring range.
•
Manual Teach
:
Manual Teach
is used to manually teach in the two end points of
the measuring range using the teach-in button. Both end
points are taught in separately.
The teach-in processes are described in detail in
